My brother Chris made it and he is 14. We used sharp chedder instead of Monterey Jack. We also used cresent rolls I put them up to the top of the pan then I pushed them half way down, it made a perfect crust. My mother said "No! It will make it soggy!" It really didn't. It's DELICIOUS!!!! But it was for lunch.

Now that the weather is nicer, we seem to be getting more & more overnight company, & I was actually able to fix this for 6 of us the other morning! I took to heart some of the suggestions when making this VERY, VERY TASTY BREAKFAST & used 2 large cloves of garlic, added some green chiles, left out the cayenne pepper, & did do a sausage combo ~ half mild & half sweet Italian sausage! Thanks for a great new breakfast recipe keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Zaar Stars Tag]

I prepared this - scaled back - as a breakfast for two although I still used two eggs. As I had in another recipe, I used croissants in place of the crescent rolls - which I think is as close as I could get - and used mild pork sausages as we don't like hot or spicy ingredients and mozzarella cheese. Very tasty. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Made for Everyday is a Holiday.
